About Morgan Dollar DCAM [Type] Morgan Dollars (Proof)
Morgan dollar deep cameo proofs are among the most desirable of all Morgans, with oft-exorbitant prices paid to acquire DCAM proofs. While some proof Morgan dollars have very few or sometimes even no known examples of DCAM proofs, DCAMs are known throughout the series and are quite popular with collectors. When discussing early proofs, such as proof Morgan dollars, they are generally much rarer (and much more valuable) than their regular CAM counterparts.
The big question for so many in the hobby is knowing how to tell the more common CAM designation apart from DCAM. The distinctions can sometimes trip up even the most experienced collectors and dealers. Indeed, it takes a highly attuned collector numismatist some time to pick up the necessary knowledge to properly distinguish those details. However, when one compares a regular CAM next to a DCAM, the difference become obvious to many folks. A DCAM will exhibit heavy and complete frosting on the devices, inscriptions, and other raised surfaces providing deep contrast against the fields. Whereas as CAM will typically show light, sometimes interrupted frosting, with less intense contrast against the fields.

About CDN Prices
All CDN prices are based on proprietary market knowledge and technology developed by CDN Publishing, LLC.
CPG® prices represent retail levels. Collectors should refer to CPG values as a starting place for their negotiations, or auction bid reference.
Greysheet/Greensheet prices are wholesale market levels for collectible coins/paper money intended to indicate what a dealer, or wholesale, buyer would pay for the described item in the specified grade. Greysheet/Greensheet represent "sight-seen" values based on a buyer's in-hand review. The actual value can be more or less than this depending on factors including eye appeal and market timing.
Bluesheet (NGC & PCGS) prices represent the highest sight-unseen offers to buy on dealer networks like CDN Exchange. In many cases, there are no active sight-unseen buy offers, so CDN looks to the recent lowest market values for such an item. For this reason, Bluesheet values typically represent the floor of the market for the specified item. CDN only tracks Bluesheet on certain items.
CAC prices are for U.S. coins that meet the standards of the Certified Acceptance Corporation. You can learn more about CAC on their web site.
